So I'm trying to write an excel formula that finds the number of records based on a location. Say I want the number of times A appears for the Nashville location, how would I go about this?
Here's a sample table - obviously simplified as I'm using a very large data source.
Item Location
A Nashville
B New Orleans
B Nashville
A Las Vegas
A Las Vegas
A Nashville
C New Orleans
D Nashville
B Las Vegas
I need the formula to filter the rows to find the ones that use the given location and the item, and count the number of times it appears.
I tried using Vlookup's and if statements, but didn't have any success (I don't want to create a new 'helper column)
Pretty sure I did a very bad job explaining this, let me know if you need clarification..
Don't overthink it! You can just use COUNTIFS()
, as mentioned in the comments.
=COUNTIFS($A:$A,"A",$B:$B,"Nashville")
And I would recommend not using whole columns, but rather the specific range (eg ...($A$1:$A$1000)
or such.
